Material Properties

Material properties are necessary for the strength calculations of components and equipment in the process industry. The material properies page on this website is only for reference and order of magnitude when using the head and shell calculation pages.

The data for the material database comes from an out-of-date listing of materials and is for demonstration purposes only. The figures from the material properties pages can not be used for actual strength calculations.
